The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are postponing the Ring of Honor induction of former coach Bruce Arians to a later game on the team’s home schedule, although the new date for the ceremony hasn’t been determined.
On-going scheduling conflicts created by Hurricane Ian necessitated the postponement.
Arians, now a senior football consultant with the Bucs, coached the team for three seasons (2019-21). He led the team to the playoffs in two of the three seasons and won Super Bowl LV following the 2020 season. He remains the oldest coach to win a Super Bowl.
Overall, the Bucs went 36-19 in the regular season under Arians, including a 13-4 mark in 2021, and won five playoff games.
Once inducted, Arians will be the 14th member of the team’s Ring of Honor.
The Todd Bowles-led Buccaneers lost their home opener on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. The team will operate out of South Florida this week while preparing to play the Kansas City Chiefs. The primetime game, scheduled for Sunday night, is still currently expected to be played in Tampa, although the location is subject to change based on Hurricane Ian.
